There are things we’ve all been taught as therapists not to question, even when we get that feeling deep down in our guts that the truth might be a bit more complicated than that.

Thank you for tackling tough subjects in the field of psychotherapy and counseling! As a clinician, I find it immensely, encouraging and refreshing as well as ins to listen to your podcast! I especially appreciate your views on diagnosis. As useful as these categories constantly, reminding my clients that we’ve made all of this up.
Like the previous reviewer, I have listened twice to the Karen Maroda and the boundary violation episodes. There was so much to take away from these fascinating conversations, I have already found the learning invaluable in my practice. Thank you!
This is full of gold, especially Rivas’s solo episodes— a gift to all of us doing the hard and beautiful work of therapy.
Oh my goodness - thank you so much for making these podcast episodes! I listened to Karen Maroda’s episode with you twice as my jaw hit the floor first time round 🙃 this podcast is a treasure trove and I’m sharing it with everyone I know at Uni! Thank you Riva 🧡

Focusing on the complexities and contradictions within the practice of therapy, discussions frequently challenge conventional wisdom and explore the nuances that therapists encounter in their work. Each episode investigates a specific therapy cliche, truism, or best practice, aiming to reveal how these concepts play out in real-world scenarios rather than relying solely on textbook definitions. The candid style invites listeners to reconsider established norms and engage with the deeper, often uncomfortable truths that lie beneath the surface of therapeutic practices, making it particularly appealing to both aspiring and practicing therapists who seek to understand the intricacies of their profession.
